Are certain dog breeds outlawed in Georgia?

There are no dog breeds that are outlawed in Georgia. However, there are dog breeds that are restricted from municipality to municipality. For instance, in College Park, Georgia, pit pulls, Dobermans, Rottweilers, and German shepherds are considered potentially dangerous and are under different rules than in other cities. For example, pit bulls and Rottweilers are banned from dog parks where you cannot walk your dog off-leash. It all depends. These are thorny issues that vary from city to city. So you need someone like the Foster Firm who is familiar with these different types of ordinances in Georgia to help you navigate your case.
